Spirit announced that its Abdul «degster» Hasanov will leave its squad by mutual agreement and will be put up for transfer. The team manager and coach explain that this decision is not related to his level of play and is due to «inability to reach an understanding». Representatives of the organization did not go into details, but mentioned that it was a difference of opinion on the future of the team.
Shortly after this information was published, one of the sources suggested that the disagreement was related to Spirit's recent move to Serbia, while degster wanted to stay in Russia. The player later confirmed this version in his tweet. He said that the main reason he left the team was the need to move to Serbia for an extended period of time, which he could not agree to. The player emphasized that his decision had no political context and was made solely for personal reasons.
At the recent PGL Major Antwerp, the team managed to make it to the semifinals, defeating Astralis, Heroic and FURIA. Much of this success was due to the efforts of degster, who showed an average rating of 1.25 at the majors, outperforming the rest of the team.
